“For you are a holy people, who belong to the Lord your God. Of all the people on earth, the Lord your God has chosen you to be his own special treasure.”

Insight: When I was in grade school, I started to collect stamps. I decided to go to a stamp collection, and found out quickly that I did not belong there. There was no one there under the age of 60! Compare that to how I feel at home. Home is where I belong! I do not have to preface my statements, laughter comes easiest here, and I feel loved and cared for. You belong to God. You never have to feel like I did at a stamp convention with him, he loves and adores you for you!

Prayer: Lord, we belong to you. You are our father, our best friend, our companion, and our advocate. Help us choose today to be reminded that we belong to you even when we don’t feel that way at times. Our emotions can toss us around, but the truth still stands. We are treasured by you!
